Unity Remote 5 Windows - iOS not working

Hello everyone,
I’m working with the latest Unity 5 Patch (5.5.1p4) on Windows and try to connect to my Iphone 5s with the Remote 5 App. I can select my Iphone in the Editor, but if I press start nothing happens. I already switched to the iOS Build support, restarted everything, …, any more ideas?
Thanks in advantage

Installing iTunes, signing in, and telling it to trust my iPhone did the trick!

@AnikaP is right, going into iTunes and trust this computer did the trick,
Thanks.

it worked! Thanks very much! I spent a whole day just to figure out how to make this work!!!

For anyone having this problem – I am on windows trying to display to Unity Remote 5 on iOS. I was having huge troubles, I tried updating Unity, updating my iPhone’s iOS version, re-downloading Unity Remote 5, nothing. I already had iTunes installed, so I didn’t think that would be the issue.

What solved my issue (iPhone showing up under devices in the Unity Editor but nothing happening in Remote 5 when I press Play) was actually HAVING ITUNES OPEN WHILE TESTING ON REMOTE 5.

Having iTunes installed simply wasn’t enough, It was making me keep iTunes open WHILE playing on Unity Remote 5. Hope this helps :slight_smile:
